If we are going to compare, let’s compare apples to apples.
What do you mean compare apples? Nobody is under any illusion that this will continue indefinitely. It is what it is. The thing that most people from the outside miss, because it is hard to translate it to writing is quality of life. The quality of life has always been vastly superior at K4 than any other airline I have worked at. I have worked at some very good QOL airlines. MaxJet and USA3000 to name a few. It is not all about the money for me and I am biased.
